    This product is filled with ads and the resolution is pretty bad if you're going to use Skype. I found it extremely difficult to add new apps. This is a good tablet as far as price is concerned. If you don't mind ads.

    I bought this tablet for an elderly person in my family. After opening it I tried to set it up for them. It is impossible to set up Fire tablet without giving Amazon a credit card to have on file. The person I was getting this for had no intention of purchasing anything from Amazon. I was getting it for them to set up some music account to stream like Pandora, Tidal, Spotify. Amazon would not let me download free app without a credit card for the account. I returned the tablet and went with a Samsung.

    For the first year it worked fine, but then it became difficult to turn off. At about 16 months, it simply stopped functioning.

    The Amazon Fire HD 8 tablet no longer was able to charge less than six months after being received as a Christmas present. I contaced Amazon, assuming that the was a one year warranty. Amazon tech support navigated me through a number of trouble shooting steps and concluded that the Usb port is defective. I was then told that this product only has a 90 day warranty and the best they could do in give me a 10% on my next Amazon purchase! Wow!

    you can't do anything without an ad showing up, and they are tough to get rid of.
